It appeared more frequently in Max Battles during the Simply Groundbreaking event (November 15th - 8 PM local time on November 17th).

Soloing Dynamax Drilbur Max Battles

Dynamax Drilbur is a 1-star Max Battle, making solo completion feasible. However, teaming up with friends simplifies the encounter. Utilizing your strongest Dynamax Pokémon and exploiting type advantages significantly boosts your chances of victory and capture.

Suggested Counters for Dynamax Drilbur Max Battles

Drilbur's Ground-type weakness makes Grass and Water-type Pokémon ideal counters. While Ice-type Pokémon are also effective, the lack of Dynamax-capable Ice-types currently limits this option.

Here are some top Dynamax Pokémon recommendations (using evolved forms for maximum power, but less evolved forms may still suffice):

Pokemon	Suggested Moveset
Dynamax Blastoise	Water Gun Hydro Cannon
Dynamax Venusaur	Vine Whip Frenzy Plant
Dynamax Rillaboom	Razor Leaf Grass Knot
Dynamax Inteleon	Water Gun Surf

For optimal results, create a team of three Water and/or Grass-type Pokémon for strategic switching. Remember to maximize your Max Moves for quick victories.
